• Source Priority Selects the priority assigned to each received format.
Source Priority 1 thru Source Priority 4 select the preferred format to be
used in descending order (i.e., Source Priority 2 selects the second-most
preferred format, and so on. See example below.)
Note: Reference VITC selection uses selection as set using Video
Alignment tab for source.
Note: Disable Output setting should be used with care. If Disable Output is selected with alternate intended format(s) set as a
lower priority, the card will indeed disable all timecode output should the ordinate preferred format(s) become unavailable.
Typically, choices other than Disable should be used if a timecode output is always desired, with Disable only being used to
remove all timecode data.
• Output Status Display Displays the current content and source being used for the timecode data
as follows:
• Output status OK (in this example, ATC_VITC timecode being
outputted).
• Timecode Insertion button set to Disabled or selected format(s)
unavailable as input; output insertion disabled.
Note: Because the 1’s digit of the display Frames counter goes from 0 to
29, the fractional digit (along with the 1’s digit) indicates frame
count as follows:
0.0 Frame 0
0.1 Frame 1
1.0 Frame 2
1.1 Frame 3

In this example, even though
and ATC_LTC could be
available to substitute for
ATC_VITC not being present,
the card will revert to no
timecode output since the
choice of Disable Output
“out-prioritizes” ATC_LTC
with these settings. The choices shown here
will allow ATC_LTC to
“out-prioritize” Disable
Output if ATC_VITC is
not available.
